What They Say:
Check out these quotes from reviews & previews
"...a healthy selection of no-name athletes from around the world... events are pretty standard fair for a game of this nature... simply aren't enough events to keep you interested for very long... graphics are very slick... controls are extremely responsive..."
"The seven included events play almost as you'd expect, although there are a couple of twists included for variety. In the 100 and 1500 meter dash events, you mash the X and A button to build and maintain speed, but you have to pay attention to a stamina meter, which depletes at high speeds."
"What a disappointment. I am not amused, and I imagine anyone else who blows $60 on the import will be similarly disillusioned. The bottom line? Virtua Athlete 2K looks pretty, plays well, but is crippled by zero longevity and fantastically shallow single-player modes. Worst of all, the game is nowhere near as fun as its four-year-old predecessor."
